An instance attribute is defined outside `__init__`

Reports a problem when instance attribute definition is outside __init__ method.

Example:

class Book: def __init__(self): self.author = 'Mark Twain' def release(self): self.year = '1889'

When the quick-fix is applied, the code sample changes to:

class Book: def __init__(self): self.year = '1889' self.author = 'Mark Twain' def release(self): pass
